Lisajb Report post Posted July 11, 2005 Looking at the NAS homepage recently, found a little snippet that might be of interest. You can apply (it costs a fiver) for a card that, if you or your child are in receipt of DLA (there are some different qualifications also) enables the accompanying person to have a free cinema ticket. Looks like its valid at most national cinemas (Warner Village etc) and some smaller independent ones. You have to send a couple of passport sized photos and proof of the benefit you are in receipt of, or the disability (copies will do) Think I might get one for Chris as going to the pictures is something he quite enjoys. Anyway, just thought this might be of interest Lisa Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mandyque Report post Posted July 11, 2005 UGC also do a free pass if you have one locally, you pay for the disabled person and the carer goes free. C loves going, she gets her bag of pic n mix (which I can afford because I didn't have to pay for myself lol!) and she sits munching sweets and watching the film. I think she enjoys it because it is dark so there is only one thing to focus on, fortunately we don't have hyper sensitivity issues with the noise.

bevalee Report post Posted July 11, 2005 I neverl pay for Ryan at Vue Cinema's. If you have proof of DLA then they go in free anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
